Anti-war protesters plan to storm the inside and outside of the Hart Senate Office Building at 11:30 a.m. today, with the intent of causing enough havoc to shut business down.

David Swanson, one of the original organizers of the October 2011/Stop the Machine protests  which is distinct from the Occupy D.C. protests in McPherson Square  explained the plan to an assembled crowd of less than 100, mainly elderly protesters in Freedom Square Tuesday morning.

The plan is to send protesters into the Hart building in small insurgent groups, which will begin causing chaos at 11:30 a.m.

As someone who worked in DC for several years. I would advise the protesters that this a VERY bad idea. The capital hill police DO NOT play around, especially when it comes to secure buildings such as this one. They will get medieval on your a$$ and won't hesitate to use live ammo if they think a serious threat is eminent.
